"Thank you, senior, for your support, so that this junior can have the opportunity to enter this fourth-level world!"
The real fire retreated, and the cracks in the void passage slowly closed.
The figure who rushed to Jiang Li's side in embarrassment shook his clothes that were almost as black as ragged clothes, but bowed respectfully and carefully.
"You are smart and bold!"
Jiang Li smiled coldly and made a hoarse and old voice.
As early as when he grabbed Ran Zongzhi and walked into the transmission channel, he had already noticed someone following behind him.
The reason why there was no palm to fly him away was that this person did not have any hostile thoughts or motives, and even took the initiative to remove some defensive measures.
Second, Jiang Li's perception shrouded the center of Kuishui World. This person once said that he was from Liangzhou.
I also want to take the opportunity to get some information about this person and the forces behind him.
After all, ancient Liangzhou was once the land of the former Qin Dynasty, and the Liangzhou tripod was also the first weapon of luck that Jiang Li harvested.
When I return to Anmang City in the future, I may not plan to make arrangements in Liangzhou.
The ancient clan dormant in Liangzhou is the biggest factor of instability.
"Opportunities come from danger, not to mention the kindness of seniors. If juniors really encounter some troubles, seniors will not ignore them!"
The visitor had a naturally smiling face, and a friendly smile naturally emerged, as if the two of them had known each other for a long time.
"Now that you have entered the world of Binghuo, please leave on your own!"
Jiang Li waved his sleeves, his face was cold and aloof, as if he was keeping away from strangers, but he kept observing his surroundings.
"Senior seems to be entering the world of Binghuo for the first time and is unaware of the changes in this world!"
But the man was not in a hurry to leave. He was twenty-seven or eighty years old, tall and handsome, and while he was talking, he took out a Taoist robe from a Xumi jade pendant and put it on, adding a bit of scholarly air. interest.
It's just that the hair, which was almost covered by the real fire, was bald and messy, which detracted a lot of points from his image.
"Variety?"
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and glanced sideways at the latter.
He really didn't know much about the Ancient God Tower. All his knowledge came from the animal skin scroll that Fu Di, the mercenary leader of the Western Regions, found for him.
Among them, there are only a few words about the world above the fourth floor.
"So that the seniors will know that this fourth level of the world was originally filled with fierce fire energy, and the spirit energy aura filled the world, making it extremely dangerous!"
The man smiled and said: "But just when it was turned on last time, someone was lucky enough to enter the space above the sixth floor, angered some powerful being, and chased him all the way to the fourth floor. With a wave of his hand, , all the Binghuo essence sources in this layer of the world were taken away and sealed in the central area of the Binghuo world.
"This has led to the current appearance of the Binghuo world. Not only has the danger on the periphery not diminished at all, but it has caused people to be careless, and the danger in the center has doubled!"
"You know very well? It seems that they are also from the ancient tribe!"
Jiang Li heard the words and said with some profound meaning: "In this case, I would never dare to accept the call of senior."
"Senior has misunderstood. According to the date of birth, in fact, this junior, like you, is also a person of the past and present!"
The young man quickly explained: "I am indeed from an ancient clan, but I am not a real ancient clan. The reason why I know the secrets of the ancient god tower is because my father told me!"
"Descendants of ancient tribes?"
Jiang Li's eyes moved slightly, but he was a little surprised.
The ancient tribes have survived to this day, each with their own methods.
Most of the ancient clans that have appeared in Kyushu today have continued to this day through continuous reincarnation and rebirth, consuming the source of their souls.
In order to reduce the fetters of cause and effect, even if these ancient tribes survive for many generations, few will give birth to children.
After all, in their view, the physical body is just a container for temporary residence.
Once an heir is born, there will be many more causes and effects involved. If the child cannot be completely cut off and escaped in the next life, thousands of years of hard work will be in vain.
However, when the person in front of him passed through the transmission channel, his spiritual thoughts fluctuated and revealed an extremely deep aura of his divine soul. It really did not look like he had been reincarnated in many lives.
"My Lord Shang, my father is the Commander-in-Chief of the Yumen Province of the Great Zhou Dynasty. As for my mother, it is true that she is from the ancient tribe, but even I don't know my mother's true identity!"
Shang Shichen reported his family status and did not hide anything.
"I see!"
Jiang Li was even more surprised. He didn't expect this person to be so honest.
At only twenty-seven or eight years old, he is already a ghost immortal who has survived three thunder tribulations. His level of strength is not inferior to Liu Qingshu's at all, and he is not a stupid person after all.
If he is not truly innocent and honest, he means he thinks very highly of himself and has great reliance.
"This junior's entry into the Ancient God Tower this time is not to seek the treasure. He is just following his mother's order to come to the world in this tower to worship something. It will not conflict with the purpose of the senior, and it will even be of great help!"
Shang Shichen cupped his hands and said: "Therefore, please allow me to go with you. If you really need it, I hope you can get the blessing of me from my elders, so that you can walk the rest of the journey safely and fulfill your mother's instructions!"
"Then let's go together. If you have other plans on the way, don't blame me for being cruel!"
With a cold face, Jiang Li nodded reluctantly, grabbed Ran Zongzhi, and stepped forward.
When Shang Shichen saw this, his face was slightly happy, and he quickly followed, slowing down by half a body, and whispering from time to time, introducing Jiang Li to some situations in the world of Binghuo.
"Senior, you need to be careful. Although the fire element is thin on the outside of this world, there are still some fire veins under the ground, and there will be weak fire spirits born in this world dormant and inhabited!"
"The world of the God Tower becomes more magical every level. The water puppets in the Kuishui world are unconscious, but in the Binghuo world, fire spirits with simple intelligence were born!"
"Once their cultivation is complete and their spiritual intelligence is perfectly opened, they will leave on their own initiative and head towards the higher levels of the divine tower."
"Senior, please do not underestimate these fire spirits. Even the weak fire spirits that have been driven out of the central fire domain and are dormant in the underground fire veins still have power comparable to the peak martial saint!"
"But the source of true fire essence contained in those fire veins is not only a rare weapon for refining, but also a top-notch consumable for many martial artists, Qi cultivators, and Taoists to practice special methods!"
…
The two of them walked along. Through Shang Shichen's introduction, Jiang Li had a clearer and more detailed understanding of the four-layer Binghuo world and the five-layer Jiamu world.
Although Shang Shichen once said that the outer space of the Binghuo world is dangerous and unpredictable, there will often be fire spirits rushing out of the earth to kill all outsiders.
However, the two of them traveled thousands of miles without encountering any danger. Wherever they passed, the earth was scorched, black, and cracked, and it was unusually peaceful.
"The seniors are worthy of carrying great fortune, and the juniors have also borrowed a lot of light, so that they can have a stable journey!"
Shang Shichen praised him from time to time, but he behaved well on the road without making any mistakes.
"cough"
While walking, Ran Zongzhi, who had been held by Jiang Li, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. He finally woke up from his coma and gained some consciousness.
"Did you save me?"
Stepping into the human fairyland, the body transforms and evolves, with unlimited vitality and many unimaginable instincts and powers.
Ran Zongzhi was captured by Jiang Shirong, who was also a human immortal, and used the power of luck to almost break his spirit. As a result, he fell into a coma. He could only rely on instinct to slowly repair his body.
But as soon as he woke up, his body's repair speed suddenly increased many times.
Even Shang Shichen on the side looked at him in surprise and took the initiative to speak: "Senior saved you. He carefully guarded you all the way. He never thought of giving up and abandoning you. He seems to care about your safety very much!"
"Thank you, I will remember this kindness!"
Ran Zongzhi took a deep breath, and his scattered energy gradually began to condense. He quickly woke up from the chaotic and confused state when he just woke up.
He clearly remembered that in order to protect the ancient Qiongsha clan, he was slapped into the bottom of the lake by Jiang Shirong.
If no one comes to save him, even his immortal body will perish.
But now that he is being held by Jiang Li, it means that the Qiong Shark Ancient Clan did not return to save him after the incident.
Although if he were another Qiongsha Ancient Clan, he would probably do the same thing.
but……
The corners of Ran Zongzhi's mouth curved in a cold arc, but he stopped thinking about other things and devoted himself wholeheartedly to activating the endless vitality dormant in his body and repairing his physical body.
After only a dozen breaths, many wounds that looked horrifying and exposed bone stubble scabbed and healed at an extremely terrifying speed, and smooth skin grew again.
Jiang Li let go of his hand, and Ran Zongzhi immediately turned over and jumped up. There was no sign of any damage on his body.
Apart from a slight lack of vitality and blood, his actions and even fighting were not greatly affected.
"Why did the world of Binghuo become like this!"
Ran Zongzhi looked at the surrounding environment and was a little surprised.
Before the last time the divine tower was opened, he had just been reincarnated and had missed the opportunity to enter.
Without leaving his mouth, Shang Shichen enthusiastically explained to Ran Zongzhi again.
"Thank you, Brother Shang, for informing me!"
Ran Zongzhi didn't know how Shang Shichen got acquainted with Jiang Li. Seeing him walking with Jiang Li with a respectful attitude, he thought Shang Shichen was a descendant of Jiang Li.
Through a simple exchange, I learned that the latter was the son of the commander in charge of local military affairs in Yumen Province.
Ran Zongzhi's eyes flashed slightly, and a bright light burst out from his eyes, which confirmed Jiang Li's identity even more.
As expected, this person is related to the ancient clan, and there is a 99% chance that he is the force behind helping Jiang Li rise from his humble beginnings.
"I wonder which floor Brother Shang wants to go to, and what exactly he wants to worship?" Ran Zongzhi was a little curious.
"Brother Ran, don't blame me. This matter has something to do with my mother. Although there is no need to hide it, I can't say it without my mother's permission!"
Shang Shichen replied apologetically.
The group of people walked together and walked another three to five hundred miles when they were suddenly surprised to hear a violent collision ahead.
The heaven and earth shook, and the billowing human immortal energy and blood were as strong as the morning glow, almost covering a large space.
"It's Jiang Shirong, Marquis of Zhenwu!"
Ran Zongzhi's expression changed, and his forward steps suddenly paused. Looking at the blazing energy and blood in the clouds in front of him, he felt hesitant and hesitant.
He had fought against Jiang Shirong and knew how terrifying his strength was.
In his heyday, he was still unable to catch Jiang Shirong's palm. At this time, his injury has not healed, and he is even more unable to compete.
"There are water and fire auras coming from the front, including the Ten Thousand Phase Yuan Pearl and the Fire Spirit!" Shang Shichen said alertly.
"Roar"
As if to confirm Shang Shichen's judgment, several brutal and angry roars and howls of beasts were heard in the distance as the energy and blood surged.
Even though there was a billowing heat wave, coming from more than a thousand miles in front, it still burned the skin after consuming more than a thousand miles of space. The originally dry and cracked earth was roasted by the high temperature and exploded into countless dust.
"It's a fire spirit at the immortal level!"
Jiang Li sensed a subtle power that reached perfection in the hot air.
He immediately jumped up and rushed straight to the place where the battle took place, with Shang Shichen following closely behind.
Upon seeing this, Ran Zongzhi hesitated for a moment and could only grit his teeth and chase after him.
"Jiang Shirong left so fast?"
Jiang Li strode forward, and after a few dodges, he arrived at the area where the battle just took place.
Within hundreds of miles, the earth was violently opened up, covered with deep pits and ravines, and was in a tragic mess.
A fire vein about thirty to fifty miles long stretched across the earth, releasing a rich aura of true fire essence, and even the air was distorted by the high temperature.
The fire veins, which were originally one body, were broken into several sections at this moment, and some of them were even completely crushed by the huge force. Two huge beast corpses about a hundred feet long fell on the fire veins.
As the flames around it burned, the beast corpse gradually disintegrated and vaporized, shrinking and dissipating.
There are many such beasts scattered on the surrounding ground, and there are no less than a dozen of them.
Each head has the aura of a peak martial saint level left, and a big hole has been dug out in the chest and abdomen, and someone has taken away something.
In addition, there are many people scattered across the earth. Except for a few people who still have a breath and pulse, many people have completely perished.
Jiang Li sensed the various auras remaining between heaven and earth, and finally looked in one direction.
Jiang Shirong, Wanxiang Yuanzhu, and the aura of human immortal fire spirit just sensed were all concentrated in that direction.
"Siko Hao, Ji Lianbi, where are the Wanxiang Yuanzhu?"
Ran Zongzhi arrived shortly afterwards, his eyes sweeping across the entire scene, and he immediately rushed to a man in brocade robes who was smashed into a deep pit.
The man in the brocade robe was as angry as a thread, his chest was sunken, his bones were broken to pieces, and his mouth and nose were bleeding, but he didn't look like he was going to die.
"We have been overtaken by Jiang Shirong. He is holding Zhongzhou's fate hostage. It is really terrifying and we cannot resist!"
Sikou Hao was helped up, and his sunken chest swelled little by little, crackling incessantly, but his bones were constantly being rebuilt.
He endured the severe pain and spoke tremblingly: "Originally, together we were evenly matched with Jiang Shirong, and even had some advantages, but we didn't expect that there was a nest of fire spirits dormant under the ground.
"They also took a fancy to the Wanxiang Yuanzhu. They took advantage of the chaos and killed them, disrupting everything. The Wanxiang Yuanzhu was also taken away. In order to protect the leader, those fire spirits were killed one by one by Jiang Shirong."
Sikou Hao said, pointing to one side and saying: "Jiang Shirong has already gone after him. Although the leader of the fire spirit is powerful, he may not be able to escape Jiang Shirong's pursuit!"
"The fire spirits are very fast. They should have rushed into the fire domain by now. Many of the fire spirits living inside have the power of human beings. It will not be easy for Jiang Shirong to snatch back the Wanxiang Yuanzhu!"
Sikou Youyi struggled to stand up from the ground not far away, and walked towards him with a staggering step, with a look of regret on his face: "It's a pity that our people have suffered too many losses, otherwise we may not be able to join forces again while Jiang Shirong and During the battle between Huo Ling, he unexpectedly killed Jiang Shirong and captured the Wanxiang Yuanzhu!"
